Did the ALP lose the election or did the LNP win the election?
It would seem that the ALP lost the election long before the election was even called.

The ALP have already started conceding defeat. TheALP's main propaganda machine the ABC & Antony Green have started acknowledging and coming to terms with a non-left government.

Didn't take long at all really.

Rudd has arrived at the ALP function. Normally the party leader arrives just prior to either conceding defeat or accepting the congratulations.
As the ALP will lose the election, will Rudd concede defeat before WA booths have closed?

Anyway, we can appreciate that at least Clive Palmer will provide necessary comedic relief for the next three years. Below is his interview with channel 7 from last night, in which he says that he has "more money than you could ever dream of", casually drops a Martin Luther King quote about judging people by the content of their character, TALKS ABOUT HIS 160 DINOSAURS IN COOLUM AND HIS BRONTOSAURUS BURGERS- Chris Bath gives priceless looks that scream, what kind of fucked up life are we living, Bob Katter claims that he creates money, Palmer claims he'll take the AEC to court because preferencing was "bullshit" and exits by saying "bye, bye."
Watch what happened below:
